Support Us: Struggling to Keep Our Home

Donation protected
I've been dealing with a long path and struggle. I was just trying to get my life together, currently trying to prevent me and my animals from being on the streets. The only solution I found was getting a fifth wheel trailer and trading my car for a truck that was able to tow it. I was able to work out a deal with somebody to make monthly payments, but right now things are a bit rough because I haven't been able to find a job. I've been applying everywhere I can, trying to do side jobs wherever I can as well, but every turn I take, something ends up going wrong.

Currently, I'm stuck where I'm at right now with my trailer and my truck I had something set up to make money but my trucks flywheel took a crap on me. I've had people break into my truck, rummage through it, and take what they wanted from it. I've also had someone steal parts for my truck as well. In the process, I've tried helping out others by letting them stay with me in my trailer, and I guess I trusted the wrong people. I've had lots of things stolen from me, and yet I can't find a way to come up with the money to pay my trailer off. The person I made a deal with is only asking for $200 a month, but I may not be able to make the payments because of where I'm at and because nobody wants to hire me I've applied to over 100 jobs on indeed both for local businesses and also for jobs and hour or more away from me within the last 3 months.

I'm barely surviving by keeping food in my freezer and a generator going to power everything in my trailer. My mom's been helping me out with parts for my truck to get it up and running again because my flywheel went out on my 1987 Ford F350, but it's a slow process. At this moment, I'm just worried that I'm not going to be able to come up with the funds to pay what I need to keep me and my animals off the streets. I was once homeless back around 2017 for about 3 years, doing drugs. I'm now currently 9 years sober from meth. The path since I've become sober has been difficult, but I'm here and alive, trying to push forward and create a good future for myself and my animals. One day, I do hope that maybe we can travel, but right now I'm just focused on trying to keep a roof above our heads.

It's been such a struggle to the point where I've had to come to GoFundMe, and I've never really liked asking for help. I'm having to resort to doing such a thing. I really don't want to end up on the streets again, and I definitely don't want my animals to be on the streets either because we have nowhere to go, and everyone that I thought I could trust turned out to be people I couldn't trust. Any and all help is very, very much appreciated.
